D244

D244 Prescription Glasses

A good square frame is the white T-shirt of eyewear: simple, reliable and always in style. The D244 is a unisex full-rim square frame, sized 48-19-140, in Black, Blue or Crystal. You can order it with single vision, varifocal or bifocal lenses made to your prescription. It belongs to the Brooklyn collection.

3 colours to choose from

Black. Black is a deep, solid black. It looks sharp at work and just as good with jeans at the weekend.

Blue. In Blue, the frame is navy. It is a fresh alternative to black that still looks professional.

Crystal. In Crystal, the frame is crystal clear. It is a fresh, modern choice that suits almost any skin tone.

Still torn? Think about what you wear on an ordinary weekday, not on a night out. That is the colour you will be happiest with.

Shape and style

Square lenses add structure to round and oval faces and make features look more defined. The crystal finish is clear and fresh, and it lets your features take centre stage.

It is the kind of frame that works with most outfits, which makes the D244 an easy pick for everyday wear.

How to wear it

Choose the colour closest to what you wear most and it will go with almost everything.

Size and fit

With 48mm lenses, this is a compact frame that suits smaller faces. The 19mm bridge is a little wider than average. The 140mm arms are a standard length. Across the lenses and bridge it measures about 115mm.

Not sure about sizing? Compare these numbers with the ones on the inside arm of a pair that fits you well. A difference of two or three millimetres or less usually means a similar fit.

Lens options for the D244

Choose the lens type that suits how you use your glasses:

• Single vision: one prescription across the whole lens, for distance, reading or the computer.
• Varifocal: near, intermediate and distance in one lens, with no visible line.
• Bifocal: a separate reading segment in the lower part of the lens.
• Ready readers: simple magnification if you just need help with close work.

The 39mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses plenty of room. With a stronger prescription, a thinner high-index lens keeps the edges slim, and an anti-reflective coating cuts reflections from screens and street lights.

Ordering online is simple

You need a valid prescription from your optician and your pupillary distance (PD), the distance between your pupils. Many opticians include your PD on the prescription; if yours does not, just ask for it. Choose your colour, pick your lens type, enter your details and add any lens upgrades. If you are unsure about size, compare the measurements above with a pair you already wear.

From our lab to you

Every pair is made to order in our own UK lab. Your lenses are cut to your prescription, fitted into your D244 and checked by our technicians before they are sent out.

Looking after them

Use lens spray and a soft cloth, fold the arms before putting your glasses down, and store them in a hard case. Our guide to looking after your lenses covers the rest.

Questions we often get

Can I get varifocal lenses in the D244?

Yes. The 39mm lens depth gives varifocal lenses enough height for all three vision zones.

Can I wear the D244 for driving?

Yes. Single vision or varifocal lenses work well for driving, and an anti-reflective coating helps cut glare from headlights at night.

Is it a small frame?

Yes. With 48mm lenses it suits smaller faces.

What does crystal mean?

A clear, see-through finish.
